Ingredients

6 servings
  • 12 oz regular sliced bacon (or 16 oz thick-sliced bacon)

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Line a half sheet rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Arrange slices so they are touching but not overlapping.

  3. Bake regular cut bacon for 15-20 minutes or thick-cut bacon for 20-28 minutes. Timing varies depending on the fat content in the bacon and your desired crispiness. If baking 2 baking sheets at a time, rotate the baking sheets halfway.

  4. Use tongs to remove bacon from the baking sheet and transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and serve.
